Modern Montessori International ✓ ACRA Verified

Modern Montessori International has not published its full monthly fee schedule on this listing, so you will need to contact the school directly for current rates. As a general guide, preschool and kindergarten fees in Singapore typically range from around S$700 to well above S$2,000 per month depending on the curriculum, session hours, and whether the centre is an ECDA-registered operator. Beyond the monthly fee, ask about the one-time registration fee, whether a deposit (commonly equivalent to one to two months' fees) is required to secure a place, and any additional costs for uniforms, insurance, or enrichment activities. Childcare and kindergarten fees at ECDA-licensed centres are GST-exempt. See the full childcare cost guide for Singapore →

Subsidy eligibility depends on whether Modern Montessori International holds an ECDA licence — confirm this directly with the school before applying. For Singapore citizen children enrolled at ECDA-licensed centres, the Basic Subsidy provides up to S$600 per month for infant care and up to S$300 per month for childcare. Working mothers who work at least 56 hours per month may also qualify for the Additional Working Mother's Child Care Subsidy on top of the Basic Subsidy. Families with a gross monthly household income at or below S$12,000 may be eligible for the Additional Subsidy, which is income-tested and can bring total support to up to S$710 or more per month in combined subsidies. Singapore Permanent Resident children receive partial subsidies only. Kindergartens that participate in the KidSTART or Kindergarten Fee Assistance Scheme (KiFAS) offer further support for lower-income families. Subsidy amounts and eligibility criteria are updated periodically — refer to the ECDA website for the most current figures before making enrolment decisions.

Waitlists are common at Montessori-approach preschools in Singapore, particularly for infant care places and the popular January intake cohort. For many well-regarded centres, families begin enquiring three to twelve months ahead of their intended start date, with infant care slots filling especially quickly given the lower enrolment caps tied to caregiver ratios. To secure a place at Modern Montessori International, you will typically need to pay a registration fee and, upon acceptance, a deposit to confirm the vacancy. Given that the school's current availability is not published on this listing, it is advisable to contact them directly as early as possible to check open slots for your child's age group and target start month. Reach out via phone or the enquiry form on the KakiList profile to ask about current availability and to get your name on any waiting list if places are full.
